This method continues until the standard is met successfully. Professionals look for water entering the surface area. Pressure is applied for 15 minutes and there should be no leaks. Difficulty of pressure is increased as per standard after 5 minutes each time. This procedure is applied before the installation process.

Air Permeability

Yet again different pressures are applied on the windows and doors to check if air enters the glass areas. The volume of air is monitored. The grade levelling is simpler in comparison to the previous test involving water.
